Topic: Early Bird and Series 1 (Read 112250 times)

Does anyone know if those new Kubrick figures have hit Japan yet (or anywhere else for that matter)? I'm talking about the Bounty Hunter and the "Early Bird" sets that are the first official Kubrick figures that are to be released. Also, does anyone know of any reasonably priced sites or people that you can buy them off of?

For some reason I really like these figures. I picked up almost all of the bootleg SW Kubricks a couple years back, and have really been looking forward to these new and officially licensed versions since they were announced earlier this year.

Looks like the new Star Wars Kubricks are finally starting to trickle out. It appears that only the "early bird" set of Luke, Leia, R2, and Chewie has been released, but check out how cool the pictures of it look:

From the early indications I've seen, including 7 or 8 eBay auctions up for them right now, I think this set will likely run ya' a good $40-60, which is pretty steep. But they just look too cool to pass up for me!

Ah, ya' lucky Canucklehead Dale! I'm jealous, but I just won't drop that kind of cash for that set at this point, though I admittedly spent quite a bit on the Kubrick knock-offs a year ago. Hmm... I'll have to think about it...

Looks very cool, and that ESB bounty hunter set is just going to be way sweet! Only at retail in Japan... NOT FAIR! But I guess that's how a lot of people feel about the U.S. quite often, huh? Oh well...

Action Figure Express now has the Bounty Hunter 6-pack available for pre-order at it's site, for the decent price of $59.95. Unfortunately, you're also going to get hit with an outrageous $10.95 shipping price. But still, $71 for this set, considering what the Early Bird set with only 4 figures is going for, is not too bad. I placed an order! It's due to ship some time in April. Here's the link to order it:
